Depositing with Bitcoin
A Bitcoin deposit at Shikaka runs through the cashier: pick the coin, copy the address it shows you and send the transfer from your own wallet. The balance appears once the network has confirmed the transaction, so it is rarely instant even when everything is correct — busy networks simply take longer.
Withdrawing with Bitcoin
Withdrawals come back on the same rail. You enter your wallet address and the amount, and the payout leaves once the operator's review clears. The network of the withdrawal has to match the network of your wallet; the network fee comes out of the amount, so very small payouts lose a disproportionate share to it.
Verification and limits
Verification applies here exactly as it does to cards. Crypto is a payment rail, not a way around identity checks, and a payout to a wallet that does not belong to the account holder will be stopped. Minimums and any per-transaction ceilings are shown in the cashier at the moment of payment — they move, so read them there rather than trusting a number on a guide page.
What goes wrong
The mistakes here are the ordinary ones: an address pasted short, a transfer sent with a fee too low to get confirmed promptly, or a deposit pushed from an exchange account registered to somebody else. The first two cost time, the third costs the withdrawal — payouts go back to a wallet in the account holder's name.
Fees
The operator does not add a fee of its own here; what you pay is the network fee, and that is set by demand on the chain rather than by anyone at Shikaka. It is charged on the way in and again on the way out, which is the real argument against moving small amounts often.
If the money does not arrive
A crypto transfer is the one payment you can verify yourself: paste the transaction hash into a block explorer and you will see whether it confirmed, on which network, and to which address. Bring that hash to support — with it a stuck deposit is a five-minute matter, and without it nobody can tell your transfer from anyone else's.
